Artur Beterbiev vs. Callum Smith tickets are still available but are going fast.
This Saturday night in Quebec City, light-heavyweight gold will be on the line. The long-reigning champion Artur Beterbiev hasn't been seen in the ring since a knockout win over Anthony Yarde a year ago. Now back, the Russian will look to defeat 'Mundo'.
While not as dominant as Beterbiev, Smith packs quite the punch himself. A former champion down at 168 pounds, he moved up following a loss to Canelo Alvarez in 2019. Since then, the British boxer has scored knockout wins over Lenin Castillo and Mathieu Bauderlique.
